Snow Patrol Tour in Support of New LP
For the album, frontman Gary Lightbody recruited Big Star/R.E.M. helper-outer Ken Stringfellow (Lightbody + Stringfellow...has a nice ring to it, no?) as well as a choir of elite Celtic musicians. Canadian royalty Martha Wainwright stopped in to provide vocals for "Set the Fire to the Third Bar."
Tracks:
01 You're All I Have
02 Hands Open
03 Chasing Cars
04 Shut Your Eyes
05 It's Beginning to Get to Me
06 You Could Be Happy
07 Make This Go on Forever
08 Set the Fire to the Third Bar
09 Headlights on Dark Roads
10 Open Your Eyes
11 The Finish Line
Snow Patrol will start off their North American tour later this month. Meteorologically speaking, can we even have a Snow Patrol summer tour? Does this have something to do with the ice caps?
